    In an email sent to dawn.com on Saturday, Therese Lim who works for Google’ communications and Public Affairs Southeast Asia team said, “We do our best to provide accurate data and to provide insights into broad search patterns, but the results for a given query, such as those reported in this story from Pakistan, may contain inaccuracies because the sample size is too small for the results to be statistically sound.”

    Internet Service Provider Association of Pakistan has also declared statistics regarding pornography in Pakistan as flawed.

    We can't assume that Google Tool show 100% accurate results. That is only guess or rough estimate.

    If you think that's a "denial"... take a statistics course
    The statement from Google saying results "may contain inaccuracies because the sample size is too small for the results to be statistically sound" is not a "denial". Just means based on this sampling Pakistan DID lead the world... and in a larger sample they may not OR they might lead by a larger margin.

    FTR: If the same country continues to lead as the sample changes with time it eliminates the "sample size" argument. You then have a rolling sample supporting the original conclusion.

    Just to be safe, if I ever visit... I'll leave the pets at home where they're safe from lustful gazes. :-p

    Both contentions are objectionable. It is unfair to accept what google indicates and it may be unfair to set aside the conclusion on pornography in pakistan.

    How is that a denial? Saying the statistics aren't 100% accurate given the sample size could equally mean they watch more porn than the statistics suggest.
